With the new generation of NBA young players emerging on the court, many young players have signed a maximum salary contract with the team with a total salary of over 100 million during this offseason! Each team has no mercy on talented young people, and directly sends the maximum salary contract. Up to now, a total of 5 young players have signed a maximum salary contract with the team over 100 million. They are the Celtics’ Tatum and the Jazz’s Mitchell. Both renewed their contract with the team in advance for 5 years with US$195 million. The Kings’ Fox and the Heat’s Adebayor both also signed 5 years. $163 million in the year to renew the contract with the team in advance! In addition, Ingram of the Pelicans renewed his contract with the Pelicans for $158 million in 5 years.
These players are all young players from the 2016 and 2017 drafts. In the past few seasons, they have performed outstandingly and proved their strength! Although they both played well, their importance to their respective teams is still different!
First are Tatum, Mitchell and Adebayor. They are either the team’s boss or the future core players for their respective teams. Such players are almost the baby bumps of their respective teams, and are basically regarded as the cornerstone of the team. Previously, Pat Riley, in order to trade Antetokounmpo, could trade any player directly, but he refused to let Adebayor go, enough to see his importance! And Tatum and Mitchell, these two individuals, have played outstanding performances in the playoffs. All in all, these three players are worthy of this big contract in all aspects!
But Fox of the Kings and Ingram of the Pelicans are slightly different! The Kings’ Fox was able to get such a maximum salary contract, largely because there are no other big-name players in the Kings, and there are no top players who are willing to play for the Kings. Therefore, the Kings chose to cultivate a star by themselves, which is not bad. Method. But judging from the current performance of Fox, he is still not worthy of such a maximum salary contract. It can only be said that the future can be expected! In fact, this approach of the Kings is actually imitating the Trail Blazers. The Trail Blazers have trained Lillard in this way and made him a top player step by step!
Ingram has a very embarrassing problem with the Pelicans, which is his status in the team. Now the Pelicans are not only an All-Star like Ingram, but also a potential rookie like Zion Williams. Moreover, Ingram's previous performance was somewhat unstable, especially from Zion’s excellent performance after his comeback. One can go from one to the other. In the future, the cornerstone of the Pelicans’ team is basically the fat tiger, and he can only be the ball. The second child of the team!
Originally, Ingram wanted to sign a 1+1 contract with the Pelicans, so that he would be more flexible in his future development and be able to grasp the future development in his own hands. But the Pelicans have learned from Davis, and they are more cautious not to give Ingram such a chance! And from Ingram's current performance, it is not enough to take on the important task of rebuilding the core of the team. Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Ingram chose to sign such a long contract with the team.
